INFORMATION
Currently, the career of an entertainer or athlete is often 2 years or less. Thus, during the beginning of their career the entertainer or athlete needs to make sure they secure enough money, equity, and future financial security to survive for the rest of their life. This is why it is important to have an attorney negotiate on your behalf and to guide you in your important financial decisions. The common mistake new entertainers make is signing a contract for an agreed amount of money without representation. This often results in later expensive legal bills, and spending more money to acquire the rights you signed away in your contract. An attorney can negotiate contracts, furnish advice on business and tax matters, seek endorsement, estate planning, legal consultations, and assist with off-season employment.

TIP ! No business transaction should be conducted without a contract, and seek professional review of the contract before you sign it.
